Some people asked for printing even (and odd) pages. Well, there is a
formidable set of psfunctions on the archives, one of them called
"psselect", which I use almost always to save paper; here the man page:

PSSELECT(1)         UNIX Programmer's Manual          PSSELECT(1)

NAME
     psselect - select pages from a PostScript file

SYNOPSIS
     psselect [ -q ] [ -e ] [ -o ] [ -r ] [ -ppages ] [ infile [
     outfile ] ]

DESCRIPTION
     Psselect selects pages from a PostScript document, creating
     a new PostScript file. The input PostScript file should fol-
     low the Adobe Document Structuring Conventions.

     The -e option selects all of the even pages; it may be used
     in conjunction with the other page selection options.

     The -o option selects all of the odd pages; it may be used
     in conjunction with the other page selection options.

     The -ppages option specifies the pages which are to be
     selected.  Pages is a comma separated list of page ranges,
     each of which may be a page number, or a page range of the
     form first-last. If first is omitted, the first page is
     assumed, and if last is omitted, the last page is assumed.

     The -r option causes psselect to output the selected pages
     in reverse order.

     Psselect normally prints the page numbers of the pages rear-
     ranged; the -q option suppresses this.

NOTES
     Psselect selects pages in the order that they appear in the
     file, starting from one. The actual page number in the docu-
     ment may be different.

--------------------------

I can't recall where I got it from, but you should ask archie maybe.
There are other handy programs as well:

gemoe@proximus 23> ls /usr/local/bin/ps*
/usr/local/bin/psbook*    /usr/local/bin/psfix*     /usr/local/bin/psselect*
/usr/local/bin/pscreen*   /usr/local/bin/psnup*     /usr/local/bin/pstops*

(If you cant find anything, but really need it bad, I can Nextmail it to you.)

	Have fun, Gerhard.
